Razer Edge Windows 8 gaming tablet up for pre-order March 1st ...

Razer?s Edge tablet is a 10 inch Windows 8 tablet aimed at gamers. It has the guts of a mid-range PC gaming laptop, including an Intel Ivy Bridge processor and discrete graphics. Razer will also offer optional accessories including a game controller that add buttons and D-pads on the sides of the tablet.

Razer introduced the Edge at CES in January, and now the company says it will be available for pre-order starting March 1st for $999 and up.

At that price you get a model with an Intel Core i5 processor, a 1366 x 768 pixel display, 64GB of storage, and NVDIA GeForce GT640M graphics.

Razer will also offer optional upgrades including a Core i7 processor and 128GB or 256GB solid state disks.

Razer will offer three different optional accessories for the gaming tablet:

Prices for the tablet alone can go as high as $1449 if you get a top-of-the-line model, which may seem like a lot of money for a tablet that gets about 3 hours of battery life during normal use and half that while playing demanding PC games.

But the Razer Edge is the first tablet of its type that?s actually capable of playing many of the latest PC games with graphics quality set to medium.

The Razer Edge is sort of like a Microsoft Surface Pro, and it?s priced like one. But while Microsoft?s $999 tablet comes with a digital pen and a pressure-sensitive screen, the Razer Edge comes with discrete graphics. If the Surface Pro is aimed at business and artistic applications, the Razer Edge is designed from the ground up for gaming.
